Yep, my hacked up pieces could have been done a little better.

Collect some old intact pieces then, to cut up, Once the Jag is gone, which should be in the next few weeks, I'll have some space and a clean bench. I want to get back to the Mustang stuff then. The metalised ones look very nice. They were metalised from new not chrome like the repops. For the camera case finish though, I'm thinking wrinkle paint. For mine I'm going to buy a sheet of brushed stainless Laminex, rather then make alloy ones. This should last longer,thinking of laying it in the door panels as well, as the alloy door pieces get really scrathed from rings, watches etc around the door handle.

Went down the mates place to day and made some drip rails,on his gear. harder then they look , its' difficult to get the lip on the bottom that holds the mould on, had to kind of make them oppersite to the factory ones to get the lip in the bottom, also made some edges for the side of the roof. They hold the moulds like a champion. First one is the A pillar gutter, 2nd roof gutter, 3rd roof side that drops into the gutter

1/4 panel repair. I'm aiming for close to file finish on this car, this is getting close, another hour or so. Notice this car has one repaint only on this panel

I am happy with the Cougar - it is not perfect by any means but I like to drive them so perfect is not good under those conditions. I am looking forward to getting some colour on it. The Chevelle hmmm I suspect it will end up being a long story.

I am looking forward to seeing your progress as I am sure it will be a first class job.

Gutter fitted. You could do a better job with the roof skin off. it's hard to get in behind it to dress it up. But it's still only a light skim of filler regardless
